Environment

Energy Resources of Australia Ltd (ERA) operates in a highly sensitive environment under strict supervision, and maintains international certification (ISO14001) of its environmental management system.

ERA's operations are closely scrutinised by regulators including the Supervising Authority (Northern Territory department of Regional Development, Primary Industry, Fisheries and Resources) and the Commonwealth Supervising Scientist Division. 

These organisations supervise, monitor and audit operations in relation to the possible impacts of uranium mining in the region.  

The Commonwealth Supervising Scientist Division monitored ERA's operations during 2009 and confirmed the Company's activities continued to have no impact on Kakadu National Park.

In his Annual Report 2008/2009 to the Commonwealth Minister for the Environment, the Supervising Scientist stated that extensive monitoring and research programmes "confirm that the environment has remained protected."

ERA's extensive team of experienced specialist scientists, technicians and operators provide a range of dedicated environmental protection services.

This comprehensive scientific capability provides research and guidance to improve environmental outcomes for activities including water treatment, biodiversity management, climate change response, and waste management.
